Stop Making Porsche 911 Restomods
With too many companies and not enough differences, the Porsche restomod market has gone stale.

Monterey Car Week had one incredible Porsche restomod release. Produced by the Porsche-tweaking madmen at Tuthill, this wasnât just another of their screaming, high-revving, lightweight, ultra-manual 911s. It was the GT One, a mid-engined supercar inspired by the homologation-special 911 GT1 Strassenversion from the 1990s.
With a limited production run of 22 vehicles at an undisclosed, extortionate price, the GT One takes the wide, low, long stance and puts it into a usable, drivable supercar suited for more than just the racetrack. Each car takes 2,500 build hours to complete, will be made according to the preferences of the future owner, and comes with either a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter six-cylinder boxer engine generating over 500 horsepower, or a turbocharged version of the same engine with more than 600 horsepower. All of that power will be sent to the rear wheels through either a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic (which nobody will order) or a manual gearbox (the obvious choice).
